Once you are in, he takes his time with you; does careful detective work, and creates a custom solution, starting with a semi-custom (and less expensive) orthotic.

Now I am going to make my own appt with him! You cannot rush a master in his craft--when it's your time, you will be taken care of. Just leave a little extra time in your schedule and plan for it.

A few years ago, a subtle pain in my left heel began to surface. Over time, it intensified to the…read morepoint where I had to alter my gait, just to lessen the discomfort. Living in NYC, where walking is a way of life, I felt crushed, fearing my mobility would continue to decline. I desperately tried various over-the-counter shoe inserts from brands like Sof Sole, Orthofeet, and Birkenstock, but none offered any relief. I consulted a podiatrist, and X-rays revealed bone spurs on both my left and right heels (though only the left was symptomatic at the time). My podiatrist explained that there wasn't a definitive cure for bone spurs; instead, the focus was on pain reduction to enable a normal life. She strongly recommended I visit "the best Certified Pedorthist in NYC," Spencer Weisbond (her exact words), for custom-made orthotics. At that point, I was willing to try anything for even a slight reduction in pain, so I promptly scheduled an appointment. My experience at Orthotic Solutions was excellent from the start. Spencer made the molding process easy and comfortable while he explained everything thoroughly and efficiently. A few weeks later, I returned to pick up my custom orthotics. Spencer trimmed them to fit the shoes I brought and provided instructions on their care. My hope was that they would at least ease the pain enough for me to walk short distances around the city. What happened, however, was far more profound. In just a few weeks of always using my custom orthotics, the pain in my left heel had completely disappeared. That was two years ago, and I remain entirely pain-free when using my custom orthotics. Occasionally, if I walk for extended periods without them or go barefoot, I can feel a hint of pain starting to return, reminding me that the bone spurs are still present. But the custom orthotics properly distributes the pressure on my feet, allowing me to walk without pain. Frankly, if I hadn't experienced this myself, I wouldn't have believed that custom orthotics could make such a significant difference in my life. Thank you, Spencer, for giving me my mobility back!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my recent experience with the office staff at the Carmel…read morelocation, specifically the woman who handled checkout at my last visit and appears to be the office manager, was extremely frustrating and upsetting. To be clear, Dr. Howard, the orthopedic surgeon that I've been seeing is phenomenal. I have had two knee surgeries with him, and his care, professionalism, and surgical expertise are outstanding. He is also caring, attentive, and takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. I felt very confident in his care throughout both procedures and my recovery. It is truly a shame that the quality of his work is overshadowed by how the administrative side of this office operates. Specifically, I was scheduled for my second post operative visit on March 19. Less than 24 hours before my appointment, I received a call informing me that the referral I had originally provided on December 18, 2025, which was valid for six visits, was no longer acceptable due to an insurance policy change that had gone into effect on January 1. This was the first time this requirement had ever been communicated to me. What makes this especially concerning is that, since January, I had already attended a pre operative appointment, undergone surgery, and completed my first post operative visit. At no point during any of those interactions did anyone identify or communicate an issue with my referral. This was clearly something the office had multiple opportunities to catch and address proactively, yet it was only brought to my attention at the last possible moment, creating entirely avoidable stress. I immediately contacted my primary care physician, who promptly generated a new referral the following morning. Unfortunately, it was initially faxed to the wrong number, as the correct fax number is not clearly available. By the time I obtained the correct information, it was too late in the day for my doctor's office to resend it before my appointment. Despite this, I made every effort to come prepared. I accessed my insurance portal, located the referral along with the referral reference number, and printed it out to bring with me. At check in, I was informed that the referral ultimately needs to come directly from my doctor's office using a specific form, but that the printed page I brought would be added to my chart for the time being. I was also told that, given this was a post operative visit, I would still be seen. I appreciated that level of understanding and professionalism. Unfortunately, the experience at checkout was the complete opposite. The woman who handled checkout at my last visit was not only dismissive, but openly rude, cold, and condescending. From the start, her tone was sharp and unwelcoming. There was no attempt to listen, no effort to understand the situation, and absolutely no empathy. I calmly explained that the referral had already been generated, that I had proof through my insurance portal, and that my doctor's office would resend it the next day. Instead of responding professionally, she spoke down to me, repeated information in a patronizing way, and treated me as though I had done something wrong. The interaction felt accusatory, as if I were at fault or trying to bypass their process, which was both unfair and inappropriate. What is most frustrating is that this entire situation was the direct result of the office's failure to identify and communicate the updated referral requirement in a timely manner. This was not a patient error. This was an administrative oversight. Yet rather than acknowledging that, the way I was spoken to made it feel as though their mistake was being placed on me. To make matters worse, she went as far as to suggest that my surgery might not be covered because of this issue, which was both alarming, unprofessional and unnecessary. She also refused to schedule my follow up appointment, which is two months out, until the referral is received. The way this was handled made it feel as though I was being penalized for a situation that was not my fault. Instead of offering a solution or even tentative scheduling, it came across as rigid and punitive, adding to an already stressful experience. Overall, while the clinical care and surgical team are excellent, the administrative staff at check in and check out, who interact directly with patients, are not. The Carmel office in particular feels disorganized, poorly communicative, and, based on this experience, unprofessional in how patients are treated. Patients should not be placed in stressful situations due to administrative oversights, nor should they be spoken to in a dismissive or condescending manner, especially when they have made every effort to comply.
